“Contrariwise, if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t!” Lewis Carroll
Why copy edit and proofread?
Proofreading and copy editing are essential in written communication. Writing needs to be correct, consistent, precise and clear to be easily understand. An expert with a trained eye for detail and syntax is always a good bet!
What is the difference between copy editing and proofreading?
A copy editor has a sharp eye to check grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization and formatting. Their job is to ensure that statements flow logically like gatekeepers who uphold a publication’s tone and style rules.
A proofreader is the final set of eyes to check inconsistent headers and subheads, page numbers and breaks, or placement of visual assets like a table or charts. Proofreaders are charged with cleaning up mechanical inconsistencies or in layman’s English…does the page look right?
